Simone Elizabeth Saunders is an artist who delves deep into the exploration of Black identity through her vibrant and powerful hand-tufted textiles. Her pieces are adorned with intricate patterns and meaningful words like “TRUTH” and “LOVE,” reflecting themes of kinship, power, and survival within the Black community.

Saunders’ artwork predominantly features women, depicted in bold portraits and fantastical scenarios that exude empowerment. In recent works such as “Girl with Butterflies” and “She Manifests Her Destiny,” her figures interact with totemic symbols like snakes, insects, and plants, creating a sense of connection and strength.

Drawing inspiration from the diverse histories of the global Black diaspora and various textile traditions, Saunders elevates the craft of hand-tufting to a form of fine art. By merging cultural narratives, history, mythology, nostalgia, and personal experiences, she challenges the conventional notions of influence, identity, and artistic expression.

Represented by Claire Oliver Gallery, Simone Elizabeth Saunders’ work can be explored further on her Instagram account. Through her intricate and thought-provoking pieces, she invites viewers to delve into the rich tapestry of Black identity and experience a visual journey that transcends boundaries.
